Is that perfection what others are looking for?

If you are going to work on something anyway,
you want it to be perfect.

Perfection in work.
Perfection in personality.
Perfection in hobbies.
Perfection in relationships.
Perfection in daily life.

Perfection in life.

"Perfection" means having no flaws at all and
being complete. Flawless.

It leaves no room for anyone to point out errors,
and is rather an existence that serves as a model.

The feeling of bliss that lifts you to the heavens
when you achieve perfection.

It is natural to think,
"If I'm going to aim for something, it's gotta be perfection!"

But...

Is that perfection,
what others are looking for?

Depending on the time and situation,
there are many cases where being "perfect" is not necessary.

Sometimes, being incomplete
is more appreciated by those around you.

There are wonderful experiences that were born
thanks to not seeking perfection.

✔ "Self-satisfaction"
　in the name of perfection

For things that require high reproducibility
and high quality,
"perfection" is required.

Work is exactly that.

Because of the structure where work equals the customer,
providing ambiguous products, services, or content is
a major problem for the customer.

Business is built on the mission of delivering
high-quality, infinitely perfect things.

That is precisely why we perform many checks,
continue efforts to reduce mistakes,
and have manuals to eliminate reliance on specific individuals.

In order to seek greater perfection.

So,
does perfection in
communication exist?

For example,
when asked, "It's nice weather today, isn't it?"
and answering, "Yes, it is nice weather."

At first glance, it feels like a wonderful response
that gains empathy, but...

There are other good responses as well.

"It is nice weather, but I feel it is hot."
"It is nice weather, so my heart feels bright and clear."
"Truly, it is wonderful weather, isn't it?"

Really, there are
infinitely many ways to respond.

What I mean to say is...

In human relationships,
"perfection does not exist."

Sometimes Person A's argument is correct,
and sometimes Person B's argument is correct.

What you thought was "I am right"
might change to "I am right"
by tomorrow.

If "perfection" means having no flaws
and being complete,
then in matters that change depending on the situation,
I believe perfection does not exist.

Therefore, when you are troubled in your relationships,
and you think, "Hmm, my way of thinking isn't wrong, though..."
when you lean toward perfectionist thinking, it is
highly likely that you are just running toward self-satisfaction.

✔ Both I and the other person
　are fun because our thoughts are different

A person with an honest and humble heart.

People who never forget to feel gratitude in their daily lives
are people who realize the dangers of perfection.

In a society woven together by people
who grew up in different environments and eras,
people with "different thoughts" exist by nature.

Even if there are people who say "I empathize!"
there is unfortunately no one in this world
who thinks exactly the same way and overlaps perfectly with you.

Even identical twins
have different personalities.

If that is the case, the answer to human relationships is
"not to demand perfection from others".

And,for yourself as well,
do not demand perfection through others.

The moment you force things into a mold by saying "Because it's A, it must be B,"
your thinking will become rigid,
and you will likely end up in a dead end.

Rather,
I would like to have the leeway to maintain a tolerant heart,
saying, "It's fun that both you and I are different, isn't it?"

Does perfection really exist in this world?

Certainly,
like the answer to 1+1=2,
it feels like "perfection" exists, but...

In the results of human thought and action,
no matter how far you pursue it,
it is impossible to reach 100%.

It feels like the only way to achieve results
is by tirelessly stacking up
99.99999...%.

Rather than seeking an unattainable perfection,
it is more efficient to seek the "80%"
that leads to reasonable results.

I think my daily posts are also
a "journey to obtain 80%."

"There is no finish line."

A place to tirelessly polish my thoughts,
share ideas, and continue self-growth.

Therefore, it is impossible to ever reach 100%,
and naturally, it can never be perfect.

No,
it doesn't have to be perfect.

The moment you realize it is "perfect!"
life becomes boring from that point on.

A life with a predetermined answer,
a life where the future can be imagined,
there is nothing more boring than that.

That is why, today as well,
I continue to post in search of "imperfection."

Well then, until next time.
Goodbye.
